Small plane crash reported outside Lancaster: reports

Rescue crews are searching for a plane that reportedly went down in East Donegal Township on Thursday evening.

LancasterOnline reports that state police received an anonymous call from a man who heard a loud bang in the area of Donegal Springs and Musser roads this evening, and crews have begun shutting down the area.

Originally, reports were that the crash was downed off River Road near Long Lane, so crews are looking for evidence of a crash in both locations.

Dispatchers told LancasterOnline that the plane is believed to be a single-engine craft.

A state police helicopter and hazmat drone are assisting in the search.

As of 9:24 p.m., LancasterOnline was told by dispatchers that nothing was found.
